Science and public research are under attack in this country. Indiscriminate cuts to federal research agencies and political interference are causing research studies to be paused, programs halted, and communications muzzled.

Join federal employees, researchers, healthcare providers, advocates, and allies as we speak out against these attacks. We'll be waving signs and speaking out from 10:30 - 11:30 on Saturday, August 16th, at the intersection of 10th St and Peachtree St in Atlanta. We're demanding a return to well funded, scientifically sound, research and public health programming that is free from political interference.

The event is sponsored by: Fired But Fighting, Stand Up for Science, Science for Ga, CDC Alumni & Friends, Indivisible Georgia Coalition, STAND, 50501.

Note: This event is taking place before the start of the International Society of Exposure Science (ISES) and the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology's (ISEE) annual meeting. We welcome conference participants to join us if they can, but this rally is not an official part of the meeting's program or sponsored by either society.
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
